BIG25 Research Day
March 20
The BIG Research day is an annual tradition of Bioinformatics, Interdisciplinary Oncology and Genome Science + Technology graduate programs at the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University.
Over 100 graduate students from all three programs gather to present their research projects and attend seminars and workshops by academic and industry professionals. Undergraduate students interested in this event are also welcome to join.
This year we are featuring two exciting keynote speakers: Nobel Laureate Sir Richard J. Roberts, recognized as one of the discoverers of introns and gene splicing, and Dr. Helder Nakaya, an associate scientist from the University of São Paulo who researches infectious diseases via computational biology.
